Guest Reviews

Rainer
Great house, very good contact to the owner, two wonderful weeks.
Maria
Fantastic house for a large family and dogs. Very peaceful location but within walking distance of small shop and a couple of pubs. The garden is surrounded by fields and no other nearby neighbours. If you have an adventurous dog, they will be able to escape over the low wall onto the lane but will not be able to get into the fields with the cows and sheep. The house was very clean and extremely well equipped with everything you could need. Having tea, milk and biscuits on arrival was lovely.
James
A great family home with sea views and a garden
Jutta
We were 4 adults and 2 Australian Shepherds. Lovely place and location. Even towels for the dogs were provided!! We felt very welcome. The kitchen was very well equipped and there was ample space for everyone to relax. Everything was very clean and inviting. Stunning views from the bedroom windows. Beautiful garden and the dogs loved chasing round the house. The only thing worrying me was a low wall, which the dogs could easily have jumped, separating them from the young bulls. But all was fine.
Paul
Spacious house, great location, good for families. However, be warned, this is a 9.00 am departure and the owners require beds to be stripped... So, if you have children, want breakfast before you leave, and have no great desire to do everything in a hellish rush, this is an early start.
Julie
The cottage is ideally positioned for exploring St Keverne & the surrounding area. It was comfortable and homely for our party of 5 adults & 1 dog. It was also one of the most well equipped cottages we have used. Easily walkable (approx half mile/15mins) to village with 2 good pubs for eating and well stocked shop. We did many walks from the cottage but also drove short distance to The Lizard & Mullion.
Elaine
A group of four adults and two Labrador dogs. Lovely, well-equipped, accommodation in a peaceful setting. The dogs loved the spacious garden. Easy walk to village shops and pubs. Beautiful coves and beaches only short drives away. Already booked again for next year.
Stephen
We were a family of 6 adults an 8 month old baby and 3 small dogs, there was plenty of room and having 2 sitting rooms was great, we were lucky with the weather as itââ?¬â?¢s a great location for walking the many local footpaths.
Claire
Second stay at the property and once again not disappointed. Great location, walking distance to St Keverne and short drive to the coast.
Kim
The cottage was described. Home from home. Lots of comforts. Perfect location, walking distance to shop and pub. Perfect for family time.
Richard
We had a lovely time and would like to return.
Paul
Great holiday home in every way, couldnââ?¬â?¢t recommend highly enough!
Jennifer
Lovely house, perfect for a week away with family. Amazing views and a nice quiet location. A lovely garden with some very sweet friendly cows that greet you every morning at the back fence. Short walk to the local shop and pubs. There are some nice walks from st Keverne, Coverack is a nice easy walk with a good beach thatââ?¬â?¢s definitely worth a visit. We loved our stay.
Sally
Five friends spent a very enjoyable stay at Large House for 8 in St Keverne. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything you needed including a very large pan for pasta (a must for large groups!). The lounges and bedrooms were very had very comfortable.. The house was surrounded by fields with very friendly cows who came to the fence to say ââ?¬Ë?hello!ââ?¬â?¢. Location of the house was great for visiting National Trust properties and other gardens especially Bonython Estate. Owner left beautiful roses and biscuits
Diana
What a lovely time we had in this beautiful area of Cornwall. The location was very peaceful, with sea views from the master bedroom. Nothing except the sound of birds. The cottage was beautifully furnished and equipped with everything we needed, and relaxed enough to feel happy with our two dogs there. The Spar shop in the village had an amazing stock of goodies, so you didn't need to travel far for supplies. I would recommend this property very highly for a dog friendly holiday.
Siobhan
The house was very comfortable, spacious and well equipped, also a good garden for the dogs! It was well situated with a short drive to many good walks and beaches. Would definitely recommend!
Ruut
a most perfect house and surroundings to spend your holidays in. My group was very impressed and enthousiastic about the house, and so was I. Thanks for having us. We"ll be back
